Fergie is a fighter.

The fierce songstress is currently in the midst of a split from husband Josh Duhamel, but isn’t letting that bring her album promo to a halt.

Welcome back to TGJ Replay!

DJ Envy is currently the butt…erm…”center” of an explosive Twitter conversation after a suitor/sidechick exposed the fame DJ for allegedly enjoying being the recipient of anal pleasure.  One of the night’s top trending stories as a result of screenshot messages brought forth (the subject of over 25,000 tweets as of time reported) , Envy – usually the one dishing jokes with his crew at The Breakfast Club – is now being served them…and hard!

We ain’t knockin what you do homie, but the good folks at Black Twitter?  Well, needless they say some of them aren’t exactly as receptive to the idea of the radio show host playing with strap-ons!

While recent headlines have seen the self-proclaimed Queen of Rap reign over headlines more for personal dramas than professional endeavors (see:  testifying at brother’s rape trial, backlash for asserting her position in “reintroducing female hip hop to the mainstream”), Nicki Minaj is still using her platform to highlight problems in the Hip Hop community that mesh the two realms of personal and professional.

Just two weeks after highlighting the absence of dominating female presences in the Hip Hop world, Minaj highlights her own personal struggles the top.  The biggest hurdle she’s had to overcome?  Sexism.  And, let the Grammy nominee tell it, it’s a battle she’s still having to fight…

Even with 11 studio albums, dozens of mixtapes, EPs, and more, rapper Gucci Mane‘s Hot 100 history – outside of guest appearances on rap duo Rae Sremmurd‘s #1 hit ‘Black Beatles’ and Selena Gomez’s ‘Fetish’ – has not sung of much top 30 success.

In fact, as of September 2017, Big Guwop had never been able to boast ownership of a top 30 single as a leading artist.  However, that all changed thanks to his Migos-assisted single, ‘I Get the Bag,’ which – as of time reported – is on its way to helping him bag his first ever top 10!
